Starling Marte homers in return from IL Tuesday

by Elliott Baas | Mets Correspondent | Wed, May 1st 12:35pm EDT

Starling Marte went 1-for-6 with a two-run home run in the Pirates' 6-4 extra innings win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Marte hit a two-run bomb off Jesse Chavez in the top of the 11th, which was ultimately the difference in the game. Marte was fortunate to return so quickly off the injured list after a nasty collision with his teammate Erik Gonzalez. Marte only missed 11 days while Gonzalez went to the 60-day IL. Hopefully, Marte shows no ill effects from his brief stint on the IL.
